Workflow Automation Tools for Many-Task Computing | 11/09/22 - 02:00 PM - 04:00 PM EST | Historically, high-performance computing (HPC), has primarily involved tightly coupled simulations executed in synchronous fashion across nodes. More recently, other paradigms within research computing have become common where the workload is not a single large coupled task, but instead very many modest tasks with little to no dependency on each other. These could be data processing and analysis tasks, machine-learning experiments, bioinformatics tasks, or parameter searches in a calculation. |
GPU Programming Using OpenACC | 11/07/22 - 11:00 AM - 05:00 PM EST | ACCESS along with the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center is pleased to present an OpenACC GPU programming workshop. OpenACC is the accepted standard using compiler directives to allow quick development of GPU capable codes using standard languages and compilers. It has been used with great success to accelerate real applications within very short development periods. This workshop assumes knowledge of either C or Fortran programming. It will have a hands-on component using the Bridges-2 computing platform at the Pittsburgh Supercomputing Center. |
